Alexander Gunka, Peter Matthews, ÓLIVER SILVA COSTA BARRETO · 2013
Summary This deliverable presents an analysis of different business models of Cloud service providers. We analyse the situation of standards to evaluate and compare cloud services. We review and expand similar business analyses conducted in related FP7 projects such as Cloudnomics activity in OPTIMIS. This document poses the basis to investigate how the different business models interact, create incremental costs and complexity, and affect software development from a model driven perspective. Business models analysis specially includes cost and pricing models. With this, we aim at capturing the business aspects and the constraints used in the Computation Independent Modelling (CIM).
